I’m sure you can relate to the feeling of total helplessness with your own connection to the area. 😢 Just want to keep the help coming.

Thank you for reading. I miss her too. She would be devastated by what's happened there, and she'd probably sweet talk her way on to a relief plane, so thank the dear Lord I don't have that to worry about too! šŸ˜‚

It is heartbreaking and reminds me of Hurricane Harvey just after we left Houston. The need to do something and not being able to physically get to those areas. We have heard that our friends and family in Western NC are safe thankfully although some cannot return to their homes yet. Appreciate you sharing your story and connection as well as ways to help.

I’m grateful to hear your people are safe. It truly is devastating and I know there are other communities who have experienced similar losses and can empathize in a unique way. SO appreciate you reading and liking the post. Sticker purchased!
